THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS. Volume 2, Part 30.

1Peter 2:9 (KJV) But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:
1Peter 2:9; Romans 5:17; Revelation 1:5-6; 5:10; 20:6; 22:5; Mark 11:23-24; 16:15-20; 1Corinthians 12:7-11;

Today we continue our study series titled THE BLESSINGS AND BENEFITS OF THE RESURRECTION OF JESUS to enable us to walk in the fullness of the resurrection power.

30. God is a spirit and man is created a spirit being. Thst is why it is your spirit that will give account of your life to God on the day of judgement. Not your mind, not your body. As a leader if you love yourself and the people, put your spirit first and put their spirit first. Put your spiritual and their spiritual needs first. Leadership is a spiritual responsibility not a carnal responsibility. Leadership is a spiritual responsibility delegated by God who is a spirit to man who is also a spirit. Carnally no one can succeed as a leader. No one can understand leadership carnally. God is the origin and creator of leadership when he created man and delegated his leadership authority to man.

Leadership is a delegated responsibility from God of which we are all answerable to God. So if God is not leading you, you cannot lead people to God. If you are not leading people to God both you and the people you are leading are lost. The word of God was given to man from the beginning to make him responsible and answerable only to God, not to men and not to his achievements. Jesus came as the word in the flesh and was responsible and answerable only to God. So as a leader you must be led by the Holy Spirit and the word of God who is Jesus. Unfortunately most of the leadership principles that are being taught by believers and the world presents leadership only as a carnal responsibility.

This is the reason why there is no difference between the definition of leadership in the Church and in the world. So also there is no difference between the leadership principles taught in the Church and in the world. Such according to Psalm 1:1-6 is walking in the counsel of the ungodly and sitting with the scornful. Whatever your spiritual, political, economic or social status as a leader your first responsibility is to be led by the Spirit of God and His word. Whatever is leading you is what is motivating you. What is your motive as a leader, what is your motivation as a leader. Is it money, fame, power, empire, achievements? Or is your motive God and His word and His kingdom.

Every leader's responsibility is to enforce the will of God on earth as it is in heaven. Is your leadership pursuing the will of God on earth or your own will or the kingdom of darkness? Only the Holy Spirit and the word of God knows the will of God. Is the word of God and the Holy Spirit your source of inspiration or motivation in your leadership. Leadership is about raising more leaders who will be led by the Spirit according to the word of God. The ultimate of leadership is to raise up matured sons of God or leaders who are exactly like Jesus, who are led by the Spirit and the word in their own sphere of leadership. John 1:12-13; 3:3-8; 4:24; Ephesians 4:11-16,24; 1Thessalonians 5:23; Romans 8:1-10,14,28-30; 12:1-8; 13:1-8; 1Corinthians 2:9-15; Matthew 6:33; John 1:1-4,14; 2Corinthians 4:3-4; Joshua 1:8;

The bottom line of all what we are saying is that God wants you to begin to see yourself in the eyes and light of all that the resurrection of Jesus has done for you and has made you. And no more in your fleshly natural sin nature so that you can begin to enjoy the fullness of the blessings of the mystery of the resurrection power which includes eternal life and freedom from sin, sickness, diseases, poverty, demonic oppression, fear, doubts, anxieties and death.

If you need healing the bible says In Matthew 8:17 that Jesus Himself took all our sicknesses and diseases. Therefore you can receive your healing now by faith in the name of Jesus. Just lay your hand on the affected area of your body and say this prayer. Father God in the name of Jesus I believe that Jesus died for my healing. I believe He took all my sickness and diseases on the cross. If He took them, then I cannot have them. Therefore I resist and I reject every sickness in my body and I confess Jesus today as my healer and I receive my healing now. Thank you Jesus that I am healed. 1Peter 2:24; Ps 107:20.
Now begin to do what you couldn't do before because of the sickness. You are healed in Jesus name.

Jesus is coming very soon. Are you ready? Heaven is real, hell is real. Judgement Day is coming. The time is very short. Choose Jesus today.
You can become a born again child of God today. The bible says If you shalt confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in your heart that God hath raised him from the dead, you shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Romans 10:9-10; John 1:12.

Say this prayer: O God have mercy on me. I come to you today in the name of Jesus. I believe in my heart that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that He died for me. I believe that you raised Him from the dead for my salvation. I accept Jesus in my heart today and I confess Him today as my Lord and Saviour. Thank you Father that today I am saved In Jesus name.

If you prayed this prayer of Salvation, please go to a nearby bible believing Church in your area, so you can grow in the grace of our Lord Jesus.

Grace be with you.
